Adapter protein for several members of the tyrosine kinase receptor family. Involved in multiple signaling pathways. May be involved in coupling from immunoreceptor to Ras signaling. Acts as a negative regulator of cytokine signaling in collaboration with CBL. Binds to EPOR and suppresses EPO-induced STAT5 activation, possibly through a masking effect on STAT5 docking sites in EPOR. Suppresses PDGF-induced mitogenesis. May induce cytoskeletal reorganization via interaction with VAV3.

Serine 588 of APS is a newly identified target for protein kinase B in intact cells and in vitro. The precise function of this PKB-mediated phosphorylation event is not entirely clear but may be responsible for regulating cellular localization and will be the subject of future investigation.

APS-mediated recruitment of c-Cbl to the insulin receptor led to rapid ubiquitination of the insulin receptor beta-subunit in CHO. T-APS but not in parental CHO.T cells. These results suggest that the function of APS is to facilitate coupling of the insulin receptor to c-Cbl in order to catalyse the ubiquitination of the receptor and initiation of internalisation or degradation.

Aps couples c-cbl to theinsulinreceptor, resulting in ubiquitination of theinsulinreceptor. The aps adapter protein couples theinsulinreceptor to the phosphorylation of c-cbl and facilitates ligand-stimulated ubiquitination of theinsulinreceptor.
